Customize ICS Files for Attendees

Easily customize ICS files for Outlook and Apple calendars to include all the details your attendees need. Add key information, links, and more to foster a seamless add-to-calendar experience.

Previously, when creating an ICS file, you had two options:

  1. BigMarker creates ICS file. This was essentially hidden from the user, might have automatically generated text that won't work for the event or use-case
  2. Upload a custom ICS file. This could be a bit cumbersome because you had to have an ICS file ready, usually by using a 3rd-party website

With this new update to our ICS customizations, the process is simpler:

In your webinar dashboard, go to the Emails & Invitations page at the top of the screen and fine ICS File in the left-hand navigation menu.

Clicking on this opens a side-sheet of all the settings available to create or upload an ICS file

When editing the ICS file on BigMarker, any tokens available in the email can now be used in the ICS file description and title itself. Simply fill out the form with the necessary details of the calendar invite and Save
